Perhaps this direction in design will move the beautiful half of humanity to creative needlework. It seems that no one will object that the presence of something made by one's own hands in a room is a sign of good form both yesterday and today.
Today things that can be found in any store are already losing popularity. The same thing happens with famous brands. Their use now in individual cases and in certain circles of consumers is even considered a bad taste. What came in return for this? The trend to use in the design of exclusive items. For the client, individual furniture, accessories, and accessories are being developed. Of course, most often these are antiquated items, and the clients are wealthy people.
A modern living room determines the maximum of light and space. These two required attributes can be achieved by designing scandinavian style or in minimalist style. Both styles mean a minimum of furniture, a minimum of decor and a maximum of space, and a maximum of light. Interior design looks simpler and freer. Luxury and glamor are seriously pressed in it. But then vertical gardening is welcome. All that remains is what is needed and functional. This is the hallmark of today's apartment design.

Which is the main purpose of the bedroom.
Cuisine today and tomorrow
In modern design, there is a clear tendency to combine the space of the kitchen with the living room. This trend is caused by the desire of most people to increase physical space. Which is understandable. After all, physical space is not visual, no matter how inventive you are in the latter.
According to the laws of design, combined space of the living room and kitchen It is divided into functional zones. The modern design provides for the allocation of zones of the actual kitchen, dining room and living room. This can be done with the help of different floor and wall coverings, a multilevel ceiling, and the arrangement of furniture.
Today, the design of the kitchen is based on modular furniture, which allows you to easily change the appearance of the room, creating various combinations of its location. At the same time, it should be noted that the functionality of the kitchen does not change, which is very convenient for creative people.
The emphasis in the design of modern kitchens is on furniture. This is the use of lightweight hanging cabinets, and in some cases, even abandoning them (in the working area). A minimum of decor and famous brands. Ergonomic accessories are used: various mechanisms, designs for doors and drawers. All this makes the kitchen stylish and elegant, allows you to save space. The internal content of the furniture is as functional and comfortable as possible. And the main distinguishing feature of modern cuisine is that it is least like yourself. All equipment must be hidden. Even the gas stove has changed its design (for example, burners are located in one row). Tracking the evolution of the kitchen, we can with great certainty assume its complete disappearance in the future, as a functional apartment. This conclusion is drawn from the fact that more and more people are switching to food in public places. The need for cooking disappears by itself. Unfortunately, this trend negatively affects the evolution of man.
To bring some originality to the dining room design, Pontane experts recommend using the Radiant Orchid shade, today's leader in the trend of colors and shades. It can also be used as an accent.
The bathroom is undergoing change.
The modern design of the bathroom no longer uses white as its primary color. It is replaced by contrasting shades redblack or brown colors.
Today, the most popular is the bathroom in black colors. Of course, this does not mean that it will have a black background. Just any of the interior elements of the bathroom (bathtub, flooring, lamps) can be black. If you do not want to wash in a black bathtub, the installation is traditionally white. You can also use any shades of black. The emphasis is on the exclusivity and originality of the bathroom.
A shower cabin is an indispensable attribute of a bathroom. But now she is undergoing some changes. Today, the bathroom should look like a solid room. It lacks a typical shower tray. The runoff is organized by a special ladder. Such a design solution looks, of course, original, but, in no way, practical. Safety precautions must be performed not only in the workplace. And here it is up to you to decide how to get out of this situation.

The most popular and corresponding to their historical appearance are built-in, wall and corner fireplaces. Built-in fireplace is installed in the wall.
